Nowadays, urban issues in the developing countries become one of the topics of concern in the world.

Urban issues are complicated by variety of their society/community transitions and economical expansions. However, due to the limited budgets, governments and local authorities have no enough public funds to complement the demands of the society. Given this limitation, it is highly important to prioritize the implementation of projects. With this background, the paper focuses on urban issues and their countermeasures in developing countries. The objective of this research is to clarify the systematization and prioritization of pressing issues related to urban planning/management in developing countries.

First, the authors reviewed urban issues in developing countries which were identified by international cooperation bodies and academic society. After clarifying the definition and area covered of urban issues, the paper analyzes the project priority for urban development through experimentation using System-Engineering method, known as AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) using. This experiment targeted two groups, foreign students majoring urban planning/transport (mainly developing countries) and foreign government staff who were in Japan.
